So quite a few lemmy clients have a tagging feature for users. I use it quite constantly because I like to remember who I’m talking to. Though for some I just use it for descriptors. A few of you are listed as stubborn, a few of you are listed as don’t engage, a few are Nice, or helpful, or Pug. I believe one of you is just listed as fish guy(don’t remember why).
How do you all use your tagging system, if you do at all?
You must log in or register to comment.
I use them to tag people that are regularly active and have good behaviour. I also tag some important people, like the owners of instances, software, etc.
I don’t think we have one on lemmygrad, or I haven’t noticed it.
I use tagging for sorting media that falls into multiple categories and defies normal hierarchical methods. I didn’t know about tagging users on Lemmy though, but I don’t know that I honestly will use it ever. You’re all just random people talking into the void, hell, half (or more) of the people here may very well be bots, I don’t know. The idea of tagging people based on past interactions seems a bit weird to me I guess (not that I don’t see uses for tagging for organization in general).
Edit: actually, I don’t even know if user tags are supported by Voyager, the main app I use to access lemmy. So, that too.
I think it’s just a bit more viable since with the size of Lemmy, it’s inevitable you’ll see another person again sooner or later, with reddit it may well be a useless feature though, and I’m actually not sure what the status of bots to humans is on lemmy currently
I tag people that argue in bad faith, and if I see it again, I usually block them.
I don’t. Mostly because I haven’t heard about it until now, because a use case for me would be exactly what you use it for. As far as I can see, Voyager doesn’t provide an interface for it.
Aww that’s a shame, well I can confirm connect and boost both have this feature, it’s nice!
